Definitions

  • the present invention relates to compositions of diene elastomers reinforced with a white or inorganic filler, particularly intended for the manufacture of tires or semi-finished products for tires, in particular treads of these tires.
  • binding agents for coupling reinforcing inorganic fillers and diene elastomers.
  • the filler in order to obtain the optimum reinforcing properties conferred by a filler, the filler should be present in the elastomeric matrix in a final form which is at once as finely divided as possible and distributed the most homogeneous way possible.
  • the load has a very good ability, on the one hand to incorporate into the matrix during mixing with the elastomer and to deagglomerate, on the other hand to to disperse homogeneously in this matrix.
  • Such rubber compositions comprising reinforcing inorganic fillers, for example of the silica or alumina type, have for example been described in patents or patent applications.
  • a coupling agent also called binding agent, whose function is to ensure the connection between the surface of the inorganic filler particles and the elastomer, while facilitating the dispersion of this load inorganic within the elastomeric matrix.
  • the coupling agents must not be confused with simple inorganic filler agents which, in a known manner, may comprise the active Y function with respect to the inorganic filler but lack the active X function vis-à-vis the inorganic filler. of the diene elastomer.
  • Coupling agents in particular (silica / diene elastomer), have been described in numerous documents, the best known of which are bifunctional organosilane porters of three organoxysilyl functions (especially alkoxysilyl) as function Y, and, as function X of at least one function capable of reacting with the diene elastomer such as in particular a sulfur-containing functional group (ie, comprising sulfur).
  • polysulphurized alkoxysilanes are generally considered to be the products providing, for vulcanizates comprising a reinforcing inorganic filler, in particular silica, the best compromise in terms of safety when roasting, of ease of implementation and of strengthening power. They are as such the coupling agents most commonly used today in rubber tire compositions, even if they have known drawbacks (see for example patents US 5,652,310 , US 5,684,171 , US 5,684,172 ) to be relatively expensive and, moreover, to be used most often in relatively large quantities.
  • These coupling agents are organosilicon compounds which have the essential characteristic of carrying, as function X, a particular polythiosulfenamide functional group. They also do not pose the aforementioned problems of premature roasting and those of implementation related to excessive viscosity of the rubber compositions in the green state, disadvantages posed in particular by mercaptosilanes.

  • the rubber compositions are characterized before and after firing, as indicated below.

After one minute of preheating, the rotor rotates within the test tube at 2 revolutions / minute and the useful torque is measured to maintain this movement after 4 minutes of rotation.
  • the measurements are carried out at 130 ° C. in accordance with the French standard NF T 43-005 (1991).
  • the evolution of the consistometric index as a function of time makes it possible to determine the toasting time of the rubber compositions, evaluated according to the above-mentioned standard by the parameter T5 (case of a large rotor), expressed in minutes, and defined as being the time required to obtain an increase in the consistometric index (expressed in MU) of 5 units above the minimum value measured for this index.
  • the measurements are carried out at 150 ° C. with an oscillating chamber rheometer according to DIN 53529 - Part 3 (June 1983).
  • the evolution of the rheometric torque as a function of time describes the evolution of the stiffening of the composition as a result of the vulcanization reaction.
  • the measurements are processed according to DIN 53529 - Part 2 (March 1983): t i is the induction time, that is to say the time required for the beginning of the vulcanization reaction; t ⁇ (for example t 90 or t 99 ) is the time required to reach a conversion of ⁇ %, that is to say ⁇ % (for example 90% or 99%, respectively) of the difference between the pairs minimum and maximum.
  • the conversion rate constant denoted by K (expressed in min -1 ), of order 1, calculated between 30% and 80% conversion, which makes it possible to evaluate the kinetics of vulcanization, is also measured.
  • a processing of the tensile recordings also makes it possible to draw the modulus curve as a function of the elongation (see figure 2 appended), the module used here being the true secant modulus measured in first elongation, calculated by reducing to the actual section of the specimen and not to the initial section as previously for the nominal modules.
